Chapter 21: The Deal

The federal building was a gray block downtown.

Aaron walked me through the metal detectors with a visitor's sticker on my coat.

"How do I look?" I asked in the elevator.

"Like you're about to audit them."

"Good."

The U.S. Attorney's office was on the top floor, at the end of a long open room full of desks.

The U.S. Attorney was in her sixties, with short white hair and reading glasses on top of her head and no jewelry at all.

She didn't stand up.

"Ms. Fiore. Sit down. Mr. Mathers, sit over there, where I can't see your face. It's distracting."

He sat by the window.

She had the eight Scarsdale pages spread out on her desk, with notes in red pen.

"These are from a ledger," she said.

"Yes."

"Which you kept for three years, which nobody else knows exists, which shows every dollar that crossed the Castellucci wall."

"Yes."

"And you'd like something for it."

I took the napkin out of my coat pocket.

The one from the diner on 86th Street, soft from being folded.

I laid it on her desk.

She put on her reading glasses and read it.
